Cool News
The Behind the Scenes Pic of the Day mostly comes at night. Mostly.
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with today’s Behind the Scenes Pic!
I know we just featured James Cameron, but I kinda picked today’s pic at random and random apparently wants to be Aliens, so here we are. Who am I to argue with randomness? Nobody, I say!
So, there’s not much to say about this pic other than it features Vasquez and her badass gun on display in front of Mr. Cameron and his camera. I love the military tech in Aliens so much… from the design to the sound of the pulse rifles to the motion detector rigs built in to give a crazy amount of tension… Great! Now I want to throw in the amazingly presented Blu-Ray and watch this flick again.

Tomorrow’s pic features a big baby on a leash! See you for that!

CoolFrood!

*ahem*
-
I think you mean "guns". pleural. You know what I'm talking about.
-
Hey now!
-
...and I'm looking right at you Citizen Kane!
-
Well I called for full frontal Vazquez nudity.... shame on you quint BOO THIS MAN!
-
I hate how the movie seemed to treat her like some kind of manly beast. At least Cameron wised up and cast somebody already known for being hot when he recycled exactly the same character for AVATAR.
-
DC for me.
-
vasquez? o m-rod?
-
I never get tired of watching ALIENS. It's one of those movies from my childhood that I would rent almost every damn weekend until my parents finally caved and bought me my own VHS copy. Come to think of it, that was my Christmas present back in 1989. That, and a radio controlled Batmobile from Tim Burton's BATMAN. I love the holidays.
-
Looking at the main page there seems a singular lack of anything except BSP? Is it just the time of year?
-
This is just embarrassing now. The 6 most recent stories, and 3 of them are these stupid 'Behind The Scenes Pic' things. It used to be that you could say "I remember when AICN broke the news...", but now you can barely say "I remember when AICN actually reported news..." Other sites are reporting mountains of news, that you guys then recycle 5% of, in amidst poorly written reviews and fucking news about tabletop games. Aint It Cool was fun while it lasted, but you need to just take it out the back and put it down mercifully. As it is, I get great news coverage from Deadline, Dark Horizons and HitFix. I can go two weeks without coming to AICN and then get back here and see the last lot of top stories just now reaching the bottom of the page.
-
If you want the latest hot news and pics .... AICN is NOT where you go. This place is dying guys ... improve or quit.
-
Two BTS pics in two days with the GOD in it? i am starting to like AICN even more.
-
Connor's stepmother in T2 and the hot milf vampire in Cameron's ex Bigelow's Near Dark.I am pretty sure Big Jim hit it during the Aliens shooting with her Vasquez makeup still on.heh.
-
From that headline I thought this was gonna be the first BTS pic from a music video.
-
the HALO franchise liked the design and tech of the Aliens movie as well,since they riped it off completely.Even Big Jim made a remark about it when he asked by a smart-ass journalist about the design similarities between the Avatar and the Halo vehicles and spaceships. Jim's remark? "Well i think i am entitled to rip off my own stuff,right? heh.
-
It's the only way to be sure.
-
of what can be achieved with a small budget. Spend the money where it will be seen.
-
...would be a better name for this site - the only reason I (and I guess many others like me) still come here on a regular basis. That and force of habit. As borishumphrey pointed out, other sites report lots of news, AICN... not so much, and when they do I've probably already read it elsewhere. God forbid Dark Horizons start a talkback feature, cos then you guys are in deep shit, sorry but it's true
-
A little too short to be a stormtrooper, but who's checking out her height?!
-
no,have you? And the haters accuse Big Jim of writing bad dialog? right..
-
they released a wave of future military action figures around the time this came out. i have two and one was dressed pretty much like Hicks but he had a gun like she does. it actually hooked onto his side and the figure carried it just like the movie. i never realized at the time but they obviously "stole" that from this movie. lol
-
OH, that's nothing. The latest GI Joe figures are HUGE ripoffs of some famous characters. The new Spirit IS Billy from Predator. The new Recondo looks way too much like Blaine. The new Duke comes with a pulse rifle, and the new Destro comes with a Smartgun, complete with the arm to attach it to his side!
-
Wait.... This isnt the Avatar talkback?
-
Alien cost 8 million.
-
the most blantant being that Army Ranger that had the machine gun on the rotating mount that looked just like Aliens - and I think he was in the wave that came out just after Aliens lol. But to be fair, everything ripped off the weapons of Aliens. Before that, comics all used "pew pew" laser guns, then everything was a big, square, bulky looking bullpup type of machine gun or plasma gun. Cameron changed everything with Aliens and Terminator.
-
So the news is new to me when I get here. I used to go to Dark Horizons, but life got busy and I always said I'll stick with this site as long as ID4 is the wallpaper. Little trivia, for the first couple years I read the site I didn't know WTF the background was.
-
jesus his big fucking mouth is the most obvious clue in the wallpaer.
-
You dumb prick.
-
Can you take a screenshot and circle King Kong's mouth in the wallpaper for me please? LOL
-
for those guns...I always thought they looked cool and it's a great way to recycle gear!
-
Maybe cause hen they changed it thats what they said it was. Maybe I am remembering it wrong...
-
Jenette is awesome. Runs a bra boutique in L.A., now. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001280/ http://www.jenettebras.com/
-
Because images of the Wachowskis can not be developed on traditional film. And who wants to see a picture of Keanu Reeves standing around with a glaced expression of his face...?
-
Didn't you use the "mostly comes at night. Mostly." before for a BTS pic from the same film?
-
You might catch a WARCHOWSKI on camera standing in front of a monitor instructing one of his "Helper Monkeys" to lift imagery From Dark City
-
this sequel cannot hold a candle to the original film. No, it is not even close. ALIEN = 10 ALIENS = 7.5 at the most
-
and heavy Artillery
-
...she's played more bizarrely diverse characters than anyone I can think of.
-
BRAKABRAKABRAKABRAKABRAKABRAKA ARRRRRGGGHHHHH DRAKE NOOOOO AAAAAAAAAAAA god bless her and Big Jim for making this immortal movie.
-
I was seconds away from posting that same thing. God I love Aliens.
-
I love Dirty Dancing!

I WONDER IF VASQUEZ INDULGED IN SOME ARTURIAN POON TANG
by BringingSexyBack
It don't matter when it's Arturian, baby.

I liked Vasquez in Lethal Weapon 2 when she did that majestic explosion/diving board thing.
by Stuntcock Mike
Great ass.

-
Not sure we saw him with a pulse rifle...could be wrong
-
and he was on magazine-carrying duty, but no, he never got to shoot one.
-
then exploded. poor guy.
-
..to tell Vasquez and Hudson to "stay frosty" about five minutes after Frost gets blowed up.
-
She was also the Irish mom on Titanic.
-
The TC was perfect, didn't need to be tinkered with. The DC is too long and gives away too much. Yeah the stuff with the colony is interesting, but showing all that kills the suspense.
-
More love for sideshow characters, plz.

BSB: Nobody puts the Behind The Scenes Pic of The Day In the Corner!
by kevinwillis.net
It's a picture of Jennifer Beals looking at her nose in the mirror and crying, "I'm ugly, I'm ugly" before she goes in the bathroom to purge.
-
Haven't really sat down and watched Aliens in 15 years. About time.
